Description: Astronaut photo of the Algodones Dunes, at the borders of California, Arizona, and Mexico. The All-American Canal cuts across the southern end of the dunes and the Cargo Muchacho Mountains can be seen beneath cloud cover at the top of the scene. Remains of the Alamo Canal are located parallel to the left side of the Colorado River (center far right of image), with the intake still visible near Pilot Knob.
